The Bad
1) 6 straight possessions ending in a punt after going up 24-7
- That reversal on the big Lockett catch really hurt. We were on the verge of blowing the game wide open
2) Defense absolutely collapsing in the 4th
- Seahawks defense had forced a Bengals turnover or a punt on 7 of their first 8 drives until giving up 3 straight scoring drives in the 4th. 2nd lead we've blown
3) Defense collapsing becoming a trend
- Seahawks have given up 35 pts in the three 4th quarters games we have lost in. That is a bit concerning. We need to close out games better.
4) Cary Williams and Kam Chancellor
- Both had bad games after having a great game against the Lions. Kam blew a couple of easy coverages and got beat a couple times when he was isolated. Cary got torched a few times. One saved by a holding flag otherwise AJ Green was gone for 80+ yd td. Cary got hit with some ticky tack pass interference calls though.
The Good
1) Rawls is a reliable RB
- Give him some room to run and cut and he will produce. This gives us some leeway to allow Marshawn time to rest if his injury lingers. Outside chance that we've also found our RB of the future (too soon to tell though)
2) Offense can move the ball when we're not so conservative
- First drive was a thing of beauty. Fluent offense ending with Russ hitting Kearse for a nice TD (in the pocket)
- 2nd half first two drives were excellent. 7 plays 76 yds and 7 plays 65 yds. Should have scored a TD on both drives.
3) It's only week 5
- We'd all love to be 3-2 with all the momentum heading home after defeating an undefeated team. But in the words of Aaron Rodgers. Relax.
It's still early in the season. Next week is a winnable game against the Panthers at home. The Seahawks have blown two leads inexplicably otherwise we are sitting pretty at 4-1. In both games where we blew the lead we still had a chance to win in OT where Russell usually wins it for us (Bears game 2012, Broncos game 2013, etc) but we came up short twice.
Give us the lead and/or give Russell a chance to win the game again and we will succeed more often than not. No need to panic just yet fellas. We got our 3 toughest road games out of the way. 6 home games left. Arizona is the only tough road game left.
